Boy Sets Fire - Our Time Honored Tradition of Cannibalism lyrics

From black panthers and the c.i.a Into a sharp wit with a stupid slag We've gone and dug our own hole cause everybody knows We eat our own So busy fighting each other while the real ba*tards run for cover We shoot our own leaders down Before those in power get the chance So they sit back and laugh while we destroy ourselves Wake up and shut up we've become our worst enemy Turning inward to our own detriment Forgetting the message we were to send We've lost count up victims roll call They're all our own look back at what we've done Drove out the wrong side kicked sand in our own eyes With every hero's welcome is another group on the side Ready to fire if they step out of line Just one mistake And jealous hands claw away any hope for a better way You bought it forget it goodbye So saints be on your toes and heros be not proud Because as soon as the people rise someone will tear you down Wake up and shut up we've become our worst enemy
